Bloody Awful is awfully good

BLOODY AWFUL is the second book in Georgia Evans' Brytewood series. This is district nurse Gloria Prewitt's story. As Gloria is going out on her rounds she is hit by a car driven by Andrew Barron, manager of the secret munitions plant in Brytewood that the Nazi vampires are trying to destroy. With a broken leg Gloria is uncertain how she is going to change into a werefox at the full moon. She does not want anyone to know she is different. Not only is she different (or so she thinks) but she is falling in love with Andrew. As the otherworldly villagers come to know each other, Gloria finds she is not alone. Together they work to eliminate the vampires. As I learn more of the villagers of Brytewood, I am coming to love them. I like how Gloria isn't sure about falling in love with a mortal. The mortals aren't so upset in Brytewood as one might expect them to be when they discover the otherworldlies amongst them. I enjoy seeing how they make do and carry on with life. Who would ever think of making a wedding dress from a parachute? I love the WWII era and this series gives a good glimpse into how people lived and loved during this difficult time. I like how they have a live for today attitude and love and sex are important to them.

Bloody Awful is wickedly fun

Georgia Evans continues her delightful Brytewood series in the novel Bloody Awful. District nurse Gloria Prewitt is dedicated to her job. She is honored and cherished by her friends and those that she helps. Gloria knows things will change if they ever catch her furry foxy self running thru the woods. But Gloria has more to worry about then her shifting when evil vampires run amok during WWII England. With Danger closing around her and her friends, Gloria finds herself attracted to plant manager Andrew Barron. Can Gloria with the help of her gifted friends stop the plans of the vampires and their allies? And will Andrew still lover her fur and all? Gloria Evans pens a wickedly charming and fanciful tale in Bloody Awful. Set in WWII ands another layer to the wonderful cast of characters. I am looking to the next book in this series, can't wait to see how the town folks take care of the enemy..

BLOODY AWFUL is bloody great!

BLOODY AWFUL is the second in a trilogy of books by Georgia Evans, set in 1940's England. Not only do the villagers of Brytewood, a deliciously charming community, have to fear German bombs, food shortages and the fate of loved ones in battle, but now there are vampires in their midst! The new village baker is suspiciously unfamiliar with traditional baked goods and that is not all that is wrong with him! District nurse Gloria Prewitt is competent and clever and changes into fox every full moon. She falls for Andrew Barron but how can she tell him of her monthly midnight forays into the country side on four legs and a red fox coat? What would she do if he turned from her? What would happen if others in the village discovered her secret? Georgia Evans blends a tale of humor, heat and history in this sequel to BLOODY GOOD. I loved Gloria for her wit and her warmth and her kind heart. I loved being part of the villagers' struggles against the German attacks and I loved how certain among them, Others, revealed themselves to Gloria and each other when they joined together to hunt down the vampire before he play his part in the Nazis' nefarious scheme to bring down Great Britain from within. I can't wait to read BLOODY RIGHT!

Bloody Good

In 1940 in a small English village, everything looks normal and serene on the surface when they are not being hit by German air bombs. However, many of the local inhabitants are Others including red were-fox district nurse Gloria Prewitt, pixies Alice Doyle and her grandma, Welsh shapeshifting dragon Howarth Pendragon and several who refuse to come out into the open because of fear of deadly retaliation in spite of the BLOODY RIGHT of freedom. Alice was instrumental in preventing a German vampiric saboteur from blowing up a secret nearby munitions plant. Another German vampire William Block has come to Surrey with the same mission as his late comrade. Gloria is the first to notice the new arrival and his Nazi Luftwaffe support; she tells the others who make plans to dispatch the newcomer to the same hell they sent his predecessor to. The enemy almost kills Alice who tries her magic against this Undead while a furious Gloria vows to stake this fiend who threatens her lover. BLOODY AWFUL is not an apt title descriptor as the tale is BLOODY GOOD. The super fast-paced historical fantasy story line is filled with stunning revelations and unexpected twists yet most significant enables the audience to believe in were-shifters, pixies and oh my vampires. Her friends and her lover need to protect her although Gloria is a terrific heroine who gains confidence in her paranormal skills as she battles otherworldly saboteurs. Georgia Evans avoids the middle book lack of a deep plot with this strong entry of a mousy fox who learns to roar like a lioness who believes she is BLOODY RIGHT (next tale) while battling a vampire.
